Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To analyze how the kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) of an electron in a hydrogen atom change as it moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Energy Levels The energy of an electron in the nth orbit of a hydrogen atom is given by the formula: \[ E_n = -\frac{13.6 \, \text{eV}}{n^2} \] where \( n \) is the principal quantum number. ...
